Chapter 450: Don't dare to go south and herd horses
The farmer was not valued in history. After Xu Xin received the courtesy of Meng Tian, she completely let go of her concerns and did her best to build the New Qinzhong and make full use of her remaining energy.
The newly established Shuofang County is located at the northernmost point of Henan and adjacent to the south bank of the Yellow River. It has a very important strategic position. You can attack the Hu people on the grasslands, and when the Hu people invade the border, it serves as the first barrier to protect Henan.
In the southeast corner of Shuofang City, the newly built mansion faces the south, with the four big words "Farmer's Academy" written on it. Xu Xin looked at these four words, and her hands, who were holding crutches, kept trembling.
After many years, the farmer who was once the last generation has finally had its own territory.
"Sir, please come in!"
Sen, who is already in charge of managing the entire New Qinzhong craftsman, looked very anxious when he looked at Xu Xin, who was a little old.
Meng Tian sent him to build the curved plow that Xu Xin offered. It was clear that if the curved plow was not built well, Sen would not be allowed to leave the Academy.
Of course Sen was not happy to accompany Xu Xin here, and he wanted to start early.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. If you can't be anxious, go slowly."
Xu Xin took a crutch and took small steps, supported by her disciples, and entered the school in small steps. She was still unsatisfied, so she followed the paths in the school and looked carefully. When she encountered flowers and plants, she stopped to taste them.
"Although this orchid looks good, it has no use for him except for being a little better. If you have time, you can change the crops for teacher training, and don't waste even if there is a little space."
"promise."
"This old man, I really hope you will die in the grass..."
Sen followed Xu Xin helplessly and listened to the teachings of an agronomist.
In mid-August, the sky in Shangjun was in full autumn, cloudless, and the sky was high and the air was clear.
The farmer protection ordered Chen Xiang to look up at the blue sky, put his hands on his hips, and sighed deeply.
Yesterday, he was still a disciple under Xu Xin's seat, feeling unknown. After a night, Meng Tian officially worshipped him as the Agricultural Protection Order in Xin Qinzhong, responsible for supervising the agricultural construction of the three counties in Henan.
"Farmer Protection Order, where will you go to inspect today?"
The servant arranged the carriage and horses, took out a wooden board from the car, and painted a brief map of Xin Qinzhong on it.
"Today we will go to Xihe County."
Chen Xiang waved his hand and boarded the carriage, wanting to do a big fight.
Professor Xu Xin's compost method, in Meng Tian's words, can produce primitive fertilizers, optimize soil fertility, and increase crop yields.
Chen Xiang’s task is very simple, that is, to implement the composting method in the new Qinzhong, promote it as a peasant disciple, and cooperate with the government orders of the Marquis of Wuwei to reduce the resistance of the head of Guizhou.
After the Qin army took back Henan, the immigrants who moved outside the Great Wall, except for the Qin people who followed Meng Tian to the northern expedition of the Huns and the Qianshou of the Three Jins, they went one after another, and there had reached 100,000 households.
The land of the Three Jins, especially Han and Wei in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and Handan in Zhao State, was narrow and densely populated, and the land was overdeveloped. The Qin army conquered Daliang, destroyed the water conservancy system near Daliang, and failed to be rebuilt in a short period of time. The grain output of Wei land decreased, and the local county magistrates faced great pressure.
When I learned that the new Qin Dynasty needed a population, the Qin officials in the Three Jins were extremely active when mobilizing immigration.
When teaching immigrants who are not Qin, sometimes, it is not easy for pure Qin people to come forward to gain the trust of the Qianshou. Chen Xiang, a peasant and a native of Wei, was willing to serve Qin, so it would be better for him to come forward.
Ganluo was arranged to be responsible for the military farming, Feng Wuze built the Great Wall, Chen Xiang went to various places to supervise, Sen built the Quyuan Plough, and Bu Xing from Shangjun sent all kinds of scarce supplies to Xinqinzhong. For a time, all kinds of affairs in the north were running in an orderly manner, and Meng Tian rarely got free.
However, just a few days after Shuxin, news came from the grassland that the new Shanyu succeeded the throne.
"The newly succeeded Chanyu was named Duoman, the eldest son of Touman. Touman went south to Henan to quell the rebellion. In order to stabilize the Yuezhi, he sent Duoman to the Yuezhi as a proton. Duoman died in battle. In the Xiongnu, those who supported Duoman secretly sent news to the Yuezhi. Duoman immediately disguised himself, escaped from the Yuezhi, returned to the Shanyu court, executed all the sons of Duoman, and successfully ascended the position of the Shanyu."
Jing Su was secretly shocked when he was reading the news uploaded from the grassland. This cramp is really not simple. What he showed made him vaguely reminded of Ying Zheng's style.
"What are the actions of the new Shanyu of the Xiongnu?"
Meng Tian was already convinced that this Shanyu, named Canru, should be the famous Maodun Shanyu in later generations.
In the history of the Huns, Maodun Shanyu killed his father and established himself, attacked Donghu in the east, chased Yuezhi in the west, and established a victorious Xiongnu Empire. Such people were talented and wise, good at fighting, no less than the Qin Emperor and Han Wu of Chinese history.
The hero of the enemy, my enemies.
Maodun, the hero of the Huns, went south to the Central Plains and surrounded Liu Bang in Pingcheng. The founding emperor of the Han Dynasty almost died at Maodun's hands.
Maodun put too much pressure on the Chinese. Thinking that after Maodun's rise, Qin's northern part would face a powerful enemy, Meng Tian would never allow such a situation for geopolitical reasons.
"After Zhao Wu ascended the throne, he immediately decided to move northward. The herders of the Huns did not herd their horses within the scope of our cavalry's reconnaissance."
The Hu people dared not go south and shed their horses, so that's what they said.
Jing Su put down the bamboo slips in his hand, thought for a while, and said, "This move of Cannibal is either timid and dare not compete with our army; or he is licking his wounds silently, waiting for the recovery of strength, or waiting for the right opportunity to go south."
"The Hu people from the north are instincts of the Hu people. You are right. As long as you have the chance, the Hu people will definitely find ways to go south."
Meng Tian affirmed, "The Yuezhi, Xiongnu and Donghu in the north are the most resilient and most likely to develop into a great enemy of Qin. Only the Xiongnu has such potential. At this time, the Qianghu must be thinking in the tent how to paralyze the opponent by showing weakness and making people relax their vigilance against him."
"The Huns have such strength?" Jing Su said in surprise.
Jing Su felt that the man named Zishen was not simple, but he did not expect that Meng Tian would attach so much importance to the potential threat of the Huns.
While the two were talking, Meng Bao walked in with a piece of urgent bamboo slips in her hand.
"Let me see."
Jing Su took it over, skillfully swept the runes on it, quickly translated them, and wrote them on another wooden slip.
"General, this is news about the craziness."
"It's true that Cao Cao has arrived."
In Jing Su, Meng Bao's puzzled gaze, Meng Tian took over the bamboo slips from Jing Su's hand.
The news was sent back by Li Zuoche from the Great Wall Pass on the north bank of the Yellow River.
Zhao Shi sent people to the Qin court to envoy the Qin Dynasty, willing to surrender to Qin, pay tribute on time, and never invade the Qin border.
